Intro
Hey, name is Mike, live in Louisiana. I have been lurking for a few weeks.I have had several dual purpose bikes in the past. Got the bug for one after almost 20 years. Couldn't believe how much they are these days.Stumbled across the Chinese bikes on Ebay and I liked the price. I ordered a HI Bird from Vbikes Saturday. It was the same price I paid for a new 250 in 1974. Anxious to get it in, should be here Wednesday. If I run into any problems I know I can find what I need here.

I was at VBikes Saturday picking up my bike. Bet I saw your bike in the crate. What color did you get?

I ordered a blue one. I liked the black, but I already have a black motorcycle,so I figured I would try a different color.This will be bike number 13 for me, should be good luck.
